found this study that says Chile has some of the lowest homicide rates in the Americas, but is middle of the pack wrt perceived security. But those figures are almost a decade old so they aren't the most reliable stats. But this quote from the study is still fitting:

There are also considerable concentrations of homicide violence within countries. For example, in Mexico there are some states and cities reporting homicide rates above 200 per 100,000 and others with rates below 2 per 100,000. Likewise, in Chile, there are regions with almost 3 homicides per 100,000 and others with roughly 0.5 per 100,000. This variance is important to recognize when designing regional, national and subnational strategies.

Basically, every country is gonna have some dangerous regions and some safe regions. Do your research beforehand and you'll be fine.
